Dr. Shoe Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I notice that the record for the most users on the board at the same time was 38 on 29 Nov last year. We have over a 1000 members, I'm sure we can do MUCH better than that! How about we try to break that record on the coming 29th? All we need to do is fix a time!

Bubba136 Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 yes, lets fix a time. Who's going to do that? Firefox? Laurie? Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ionic Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 Probably want to do something like mid to late afternoon E.S.T. to catch most time zones at a civilised time. The Aussies will be sound asleep I expect then but it should work for everyone else!! /I /I Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted November 23, 2003 Share Posted November 23, 2003 I'd say early evening Eastern American (7.00pm?), that's 12.00 midnight UK time and Midday in Australia to catch the most users. The only people in the early hours of the morning shadow are India and Russia and we don't have many people from there. Having said that. I'm not going to be around next weekend, but I'm sure you can manage without me! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubba136 Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 7:00 P.M. EST on Nov. 29 is fine with me. I'll do my best to be logged on at that time. Being mentally comfortable in your own mind is the key to wearing heels in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jo Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 Needs to be earlier as that is exactly midnight in the UK, otherwise the visits either side of midnight will get spread over two dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Shoe Posted November 24, 2003 Author Share Posted November 24, 2003 6.00 EST would be 1100 pm UK time which should be fine I think. I'm usually on at that time, especially on a Friday.

Heelfan Posted November 24, 2003 Share Posted November 24, 2003 GOOD idea, but BAD choice of date! Have you not noticed that Saturday 29th November 2003 is the date for our next Heel-Meet, thereby removing a number of the UK's keenest from the running!

Firefox Posted November 25, 2003 Share Posted November 25, 2003 10 board members are going to be away on the meet and I'm doing something else that evening, so how about a week later, or we can try for all Sat evenings 6.00 eastern American running up to Xmas.

Dr. Shoe Posted December 8, 2003 Author Share Posted December 8, 2003 let's try it for Christmas Eve, most people here are up until the early hours and our transatalntic friends will almost certainly be home from work early.

Firefox Posted December 8, 2003 Share Posted December 8, 2003 I wonder why so many users came up last year on that day. Was it some special time or just a freak event like when red comes up 15 times on a roulette wheel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PJ Posted December 9, 2003 Share Posted December 9, 2003 let's try it for Christmas Eve, most people here are up until the early hours and our transatalntic friends will almost certainly be home from work early. What do you think? Am I to understand the latest suggestion is for 6:00pm Eastern Time on December 24 ? Although some Americans will be enjoying Christmas dinner with their families at that time, I will be available. Let's just hope that I don't forget. click .... click .... click ....

Dr. Shoe Posted December 26, 2003 Author Share Posted December 26, 2003 Ok, let's fix a time window. I suggest late evening as this is the time that the US (the single country that seems to have the largest concentration of non-UK members) will be able to join us and elsewhere in Europe will also be able to join us.

genebujold Posted December 30, 2003 Share Posted December 30, 2003 Sounds great! But what we really need are stickies on every forum... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted December 31, 2003 Share Posted December 31, 2003 I've stickied this one and done one in the first forum, but I think every forum, would be over the top. If you are keen on making a good show, then why not send a private message to those regular users who may be able to help? I don't think that would be out of place.
